  THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-

  Section  1.  Subdivision  1  of  section  11-0535 of the environmental
conservation law, as amended by chapter 706 of  the  laws  of  2005,  is
amended to read as follows:
  1.  For  the purposes of this section, "endangered species" shall mean
those species of fish, shellfish, crustacea and wildlife  designated  by
the  department,  by  regulation  filed  with the Secretary of State, as
seriously threatened with extinction, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE  NORTH
CRICKET  FROG  SHALL NOT BE CONSIDERED AN "ENDANGERED SPECIES", "threat-
ened species" shall mean those species of fish and  wildlife  designated
by  the  department,  by  regulation  filed with the Secretary of State,
which are likely to become endangered  species  within  the  foreseeable
future  throughout  all  or  a  significant  portion of their range, and
"species of special concern" shall mean those species of fish and  wild-
life  designated  by the department, by regulation filed with the Secre-
tary of State, which are found by the department to be at risk of becom-
ing threatened in New York. Such regulation shall include,  but  not  be
limited  to,  endangered  and threatened species as so designated by the
Secretary of the Interior, provided, however, that such regulation shall
take effect sixty days after it has been filed  with  the  Secretary  of
State, and provided, further, that the commissioner may exclude any such
species  as  the commissioner may determine after investigation to be no
longer endangered or threatened from the restrictions of this section.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
